Parents need to know that Dragonheart: A New Beginning is the stand-alone second of three movies in the Dragonheart franchise. There are frequent medieval and martial-arts battle scenes involving swords and spears, including a scene in which a character dies from taking a spear to his mid-section. There is some immature humor -- a dragon learning how to shoot fire out of its mouth accidentally shoots it out of his hindquarters, and a snobby young knight falls face-first into a pile of horse excrement. A king is given a "tonic" by his wicked advisor that leaves him sounding like he's under a sedative.
